Jul 25th, 2004From the Indiana Daily Student …
The IU School of Continuing Studies is offering its first online course to help international students prepare for the Test of english as a Foreign Language.
Non-native speakers of English are required to take TOEFL to gain admission into a major college or university in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada or Australia. The computer-based TOEFL test, administered by the Educational Testing Service, consists of four sections: listening, structure, reading and writing.
The 10-week non-credit course offered by SCS will prepare students primarily for the TOEFL essay topics in the writing section of the test. The course content was developed by Bruce Leeds, adjunct assistant professor with the IU Center for English Language Training. Leeds has 20 years of experience in preparing international students for the TOEFL and was formerly an official reader for the writing section of the test.
